USB 3.0 car charger?

What are you guys recommending for a usb 3.0 car charger? Is there a particular amperage I should be looking for?

There isn't an OEM charger for our devices yet, but if you get one, I'd suggest a 2A charger so you get that rapid charge speed.

I bought the Anker from Amazon. Works great. http://amzn.com/B00D82O68Y

Walmart has a Rayovac 2.0 amp charger for $7. Works great, but can't charge S5 and Note 3 at same time. Look for the "fast charge" one.

[Q] AC + Car Charger (Quick-Charge 2.0)

Hi,
I'm in the market for dual home and car chargers.
I never knew about QuickCharge 2.0 that my Note 4 and my wife A500F is capable of, but now I see that.
I can't find any "dual" charger from known firm (Lots of at AliExpress). Is it just unavailable ?
Is there really a big difference between QC2.0 capable charger and 2.5A charger ? (saw Anker 2.4AX2 or iOttie 2.5Ax2).
Thanks!

I haven't seen a Qualcomm 2.0 Quick Charge charger that is both AC and a car charger. Getwow has both an AC wall charger and a car charger. Check Amazon. I have the Getwow AC wall charger and it works well with my Note 4.

thanks.
I'm not looking for dual as for both car/ac.
I mean dual USB port. one for home and one for car.
how important is the Quick Charge 2.0 ?

my opinion, quick charge is critical. it really works especially when your device has been drained. I doubt i would ever get another device without it. It is more important to me than wireless charge which is a convenience

[Q] Weird Car Charger Problem

The Scosche car charger that I've been using with my old phone (HTC One m7) doesn't charger my Note 4, but still chargers the HTC.
This type http://www.amazon.co.uk/Scosche-Dual-USB-Car-Charger/dp/B00E1UWA4O/ the dual USB charger.
I've tried various cables (Note 4, another Samsung, Mini USB with Micro adaptor cables), they charge all devices, when connected to mains power.
Additionally, I've got a cheap 750ma output car charger, that was free with some eBay tat and that chargers the Note 4, obviously too slowly to be of any real use.
Does anyone else have the Scosche charger?
Should a non QC2 charger work, I'm guess it should?
Should I just buy a QC2 car charger?
The only thing I've not tried, is switching off the QC feature in the phone. But, I wouldn't think I should have to do that.
Thank you for any feedback.
********** Edit **********
Just to help anyone else in internet land who might be reading this.
I contacted Scosche and they recommend using a charge only cable to fix the issue with the Note 4 (and possibly S5).
I can't confirm this, I don't have a such a cable at the time of writing. But I might have shortly.

I use a Anker power IQ charger in my car and it works with the Note 4. Non qc2 chargers should work fine.

yup same here... and it charges my children's Nexus 7 too..

I've been using the aukey quick car charger. Can't beat it

Any 1000 - 2000 mAh charger will work on our Note 4.
I've tried HTC 1000 mAh charger, even Blackberry charger & all working.
May be the Scosche pin circuitry is not compatible with Note 4, try another car charger.
I'm using Capdase 4 ports car charger (2 ports 2.1 Ah & 2 ports 1 Ah) and it charge my Note 4 quite fast even without Fast Charging capability.

Thank you all for the replies :good:
I'll try the Aukey charger.

look for a car charger that has 2.1A output rating.

Great set of cables helps too.

i got these, used it with the OEM note 4 charger and it recognized it as adaptive fast charging.

Thank you for the reply.
I decided to get the Aukey QC2 model, which should arrive tomorrow.

I bought this 2.4 amp MiLi smart car charger... works very well. Even recognized the fast charging. Simultaneously charged my note 4 and my ipad air at good speed.

I use an Incipio QC2 certified 12v adapter in my car that worked fine on Kit Kat but on Lollipoop I've lost the fast charge capability, only regular charging.

Hi Everyone, I can't wait for the G5, the modular design looks really intriguing, with that being said, I got the http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01AAHT62A?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00 in anticipation of the Lg G5, but I have used it on other Quick Charge 2.0 Devices and it is awesome!

Nice to see an external pack with quickcharge built in. My solar battery pack probably doesn't have that, but it'll do for now.

My question is will the stock out of box G5 charger cable work between the phone and my laptop. I've been reading stuff about a 75 resistor and I'm confused.
I also thought the stock charger was in fact a QC 3.0 charger.

Stock cable works fine with my laptop. As far as the stock charger, it is QC 2.0 not 3.0. Not sure why LG did that.

So you can transfer files, photos etc to/from the G5/laptop with no issues with stock cable? I thought the cable had to have some type of 75 ohm or something resistor in it so that it does not mess up the computer and its USB port?

I just do backup on my pc lg bridge with stock cable

Here's the power bank I picked up:
http://www.amazon.com/Qualcomm-Cert...&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00
RAVPower 20,100mAh with QC 3.0, USB type C, regular iSmart USB port. so it can charge regular speed charging devices, Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0 (and backward compatable to 2.0/1.0) and USB-C fast charging. Pretty much have all you bases covered. So I can charge my G5 and Nexus 6P at their full rate.
Also it can charge using QC 3.0 (if you have a QC 3.0 charger) to charge the huge 20,100mAh in about 4.5 hours.

I am looking for powerstation which can Charge LG g5 and second battery in Quick Charge Mode.
Anbody an idea?

Home and car turbocharge compatible chargers.

Let's discuss what wall and car chargers you have been able to charge the phone with.
I haven't bought it yet, but the Tronsmart 33 watt dual charger for the car looks promising: https://goo.gl/a3vada
I have a Tronsmart quick charge 3.0 home charger right now, but I don't have my phone yet. When I'm able to test it, I'll let everyone know.
Of course, if you are going to use a USB A to USB C cable, make sure it isn't a cheap one. Apparently there are reports of bad cables that may short out.
A question I have is: Can we get the full use of the Turbocharge with a USB A to USB C cable? Or do we need to go straight USB C to USB C? ANSWER, according to @tea_dub84: Possible that you will need USB C to USB C cables to achieve fastest charging.
Some helpful information:

Chargers that do NOT turbocharge:

Most definitely going to need usb c to usb c for the fastest charging. With a usb a end I believe the best amp rating we can get is 2.4a but usually around 2. To turbo charge the Moto Z and for it to recognize turbo charging you need at least 5v at 3amps (15watts). The stock turbo charger outputs 5v at 5.7 amps (28.5watts). Our phones don't follow Qualcomm quick charge standards. I believe our phones follow the usb power delivery standard for charging.

I gave up looking and went to the local Verizon store. I was having an issue that the only charger that would charge my moto mod battery, Incipio, was the supplied charger with the phone.
They had usb c chargers in stock. I tested out the home charger and it turbo charged my phone then started to charge the battery mod. Then tested the usb c car charger and it turbo charged my phone then switched to charging the mod.
So needless to say I'm satisfied.

Any chargers (home and car) online that use usb-c to usb-c cables should turbo charge the phone...
NONE of them (including the VZW) will charge as fast as the one that came in the box...but they will turbo charge

First picture is using the Verizon usb c fast charger. Not bad and it did pop up saying turbo charging.
Just to compare the second photo is using the supplied charger that came with phone. Huge difference.

Any USB C to C charger will *work*, but they won't turbo charge since Motorola doesn't use QC 2 or 3. It uses the USB C charging standard with a twist. I have tried a couple chargers, and the phone will always pop up a box telling that to enable turbocharge I need to use a turbocharge charger, etc...
The Z Force charges with a 5v at 5.7a, and many chargers won't put out that much power. I've seen a lot of 3a and 5a chargers, but few 5.7a.

If you're lucky enough to have a USB C port on a PC/Mac, it will turbo charge the phone as fast as the stock charger, provided you use a good quality C to C cable. It will also let you transfer data to the phone at insane speeds.

Verizon sells TWO car chargers that are Type-C one of them states Qualcomm QC 3.0 and the other does not but both show they are rated at 5V/3A (15 watts)
Has anyone tried one with the VZ branding? If so, which model was it? SKU #TYPECPDQC3VPC or SKU #TYPECPDVPC ?

So I ended up getting the SKU #TYPECPDQC3VPC and it works fine in turbo mode. Go with that one for the car!

I picked up the following charger from amazon with a discount from snagshout.com. Seems to work as it should, have only used it twice though.
Quick Charge 3.0 Silipower 39W car charger attached 3.3ft USB-C connector for 5V 3A charging Nexus 5X/6P, HTC 10 & other Type-C Devices, QC3.0 for LG G4/G5, Galaxy S7/S6/Edge, HTC| Qualcomm Certified

I've got a Pixel charger I use at home, and a Verizon QC3/USB-PD vehicle charger
Vehicle - https://goo.gl/Pa1QWW

I bought this charger :
https://www.amazon.com/Anker-Type-C-5-Port-Charger-PowerPort/dp/B01D8C6ULO/
It works perfectly on turbo power via the usb c port.

It follows a Motorola Proprietary Power Delivery, compatible with other USB Type-C Power Delivery devices up to 5V/3A max
The Verizon TYPECPDQC3VPC, TYPECPDVPC car chargers and TYPECPDQC3TVL wall charger will charge 5V/3A. (I bought mine off ebay as Verizon/Xentris non-branded for $9 each~ YMMV)
Reference https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...f_TX8/pubhtml#
I think most usb type-c PD chargers will "fast charge" up to 5V/3A, only the Motorola TubroPower 30 has the capability to do 5V/5.7A proprietary "turbo charge".. It was $20 shipped on Verizon 'til recently, that's where I bought mine.

I bought this charger for home, it's the verizon oem from xentris with the logo marked over. http://www.ebay.com/itm/351967678957
